Heartily hand that girl stick to divide pasta? (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
angel hair
'pasta?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'heartily hand that girl stick to divide' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'hand' could be 'r' (abbreviation for right, as in the right-hand side) and 'r' is present in the answer.
'girl' could be 'angel' and 'angel' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'hai' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for angel hair that I've seen is " type of pasta".)
